Maybe it has something to do with CONFIG_X86_PPRO_FENCE? That is the obvious candidate. I changed spin_unlock for the ppro to cover an errata. It seems to work for me with gcc 2.96 but its asm so its possible I've done something some compiler version didnt like. Switch the include/asm-i386/spinlock,h to the one in Linus tree and see what happens - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
